- Speaking of Affleck, check out this RUMOR from Comics2Film:
Yesterday’s Variety reported that actor Vin Diesel has turned down the title role in the soon to film Daredevil movie. The ever more sought-after Diesel has opted instead to star in The Chronicles of Riddick, a sequel to his surprise hit Pitch Black. So who’s next in line to play Matt Murdock? Sources in-the-know told Comics2Film that Ben Affleck (Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back) is eager to don the crown of horns. It’s well-known that Affleck’s buddy Matt Damon is a fan of the character. Apparently Affleck is too. No deal is on the table yet but word is that the producers of Daredevil like Affleck. Furthermore, they’re hot to get a lead signed for what is meant to be a November shoot.
- They’re not the best quality scans, but these shots were taken by a fan at the Mall of America. A local radio station up there is promoting J&SBSB and features some drawings of the duo on their windows.
